After seeing just how many team members have multi-ton superstrength and really high melee capability, I decided to go for a more range-centric character instead of Agent Venom, so the CS I just submitted is for Cyclops instead. It still needs a history, and I'm planning on getting to that this weekend. Hopefully tomorrow.

Either tonight or tomorrow. I have a banquet tonight, and the GM will be sleeping soon I believe.

I'm not a GM or anything so this is only a request from a fellow RPer, but would you mind rephrasing the tempting kiss ability? As it's phrased now, it's an absolute effect with no possible counter, so any character she kissed, regardless of their powers or resistances, would instantly become her permanent slave. It could just be my arena background talking here, but abilities that have such absolute effects tend to throw up red flags for me. If there's anything I've learned from comics, novels, and roleplay, it's that any ability, no matter how powerful, can be beat by something else.

Really though, you wouldn't even need to rephrase it if you just understand that there may be some circumstances where someone might have the capability to see through her glamours or resist her kiss. From what I read so far, this RP isn't meant to have characters with absolute powers anyway. Otherwise she could probably just complete every mission on her own with an army of minions. It kind of defeats the point of a team, you know?

Oh whoops, I forgot to say it is not permanent, I thought I added it but that part was in my head sorry. I do see your point about it though, I will change how I described the power.

Her glamour though is very powerful, like if I was to put it in statistical terms it would be like a level 20 wizard in d&d casting illusion with a score of 40 intelligence. Only a super powerful truesight spell can see through it, or another demon. But a character like Blade who can smell supernatural beings will know she is not human as soon as she walks into the room.

Does it also affect the sense of touch? Because that could get awkward... Lol.

It does not as it is just an illusion. But she still has some nice proportions :wink

It's more the tail and horns that I thought could get awkward, if indeed she has those.

And I just gotta say, her powers are not going to mix well at all with Scott's... >_>

@Jinxlynx You may want to rework your character a bit. She has some power redundancies like the ability to create psionic blades when she has a greatsword that cleaves through souls. I would ask for you to drop the greatsword and keep the blades. There would be no defense against the greatsword unless the enemies were magical based themselves. Her carrying a standard gun is also a bit redundant when she can just shoot arcane energy and spells at people. Would make more sense if she just carried an empty gun that she uses to channel said arcane energy through or lose the gun altogether.

I have no problems with the perfect disguise/glamour thing. Looking exactly like someone else doesn't mean that she can act exactly like that person thus the ruse can be seen through that way. Her becoming a regular Jane off the street isn't bad either since her traits would more than likely still bleed through the facade. In short, Mystique would still be a better master of disguise. If she is able to disguise as other people and emulate their behavior perfectly, then yeah, I would change that a bit.

I would be careful with the Lust Aura and instilling those types of thoughts and ideas into a light form of GMing if used around or on someone on the team even if it's just in jest. I think Iron Fist would be the only one viable enough to put up a resistance towards that. Could be more balanced if it only worked on people who find her attractive.

Your character suffers the same problems but to a lesser extent as the Plant Venom in that she's pretty powerful with very versatile
powers. She has a multitude of ways to approach a battle/mission and succeed with relative ease.

She could use stealth and disguise herself to get from point A to point B. She could just bumrush through cleaving souls, kiss people anywhere and turn them against each other, force an orgy, absorb all of that sexual energy become even stronger to bumrush through. Her powerset makes her seem contrary her supportive role as you said she would take in battle.

My suggestion for a revamp: Change her powerset to be more of a supportive role, all of our characters are kind of stand alone and do their own thing. We don't have a member who is there purely there to support others. Give her a rejuvenating kiss to help restore stamina or heal. Give her protective shields put over others or something. Entrancing and captivating the enemy is still nice and fits. If you want to keep the gun, then I would do the arcane bullets like I suggested earlier.

I'm not a GM and in no way have the power to tell you to change or do anything different. They may approve your character as is, but this is something to consider if they don't agree with it.

I have been making minor edits but I think a revamp is needed like you said. I still want the sword, it is important to her past, I just made it drain stamina instead. As for the gun she still needs it, sometimes it is quicker to just shoot someone instead of taking the time to cast a fireball, plus it would be a waste of a spell if is is just some grunt :P I can make it more useful but maybe putting silver bullets to counter other supernatural beings.
I like the idea change for the kiss ability, plus more chances to be flirty since that is what she is all about, haha.
